About the Waterford Distillery


Waterford's Single Farm Origins showcase barley flavours obtained from individual Irish farms, terroir by terroir, every single malt in its own right. They are expressions of precision and rarity. Yet, gathered together into a Cuvée, layer by layer, these components create a definitive, extremely complex single malt.

A whisky full of diversity & character. Made from the world's finest barley 100% Irish grown. Non-chill filtered, free of colouring & additives. Full matured without any finishes.

This is the First Terroir-Driven Single Malt Whisky. Terroir is the 3D interaction on a plant of soil, microclimate and site, which influences how the barley grows and thus the flavours contained within the grain.

Waterford's ultimate goal is to make the world’s most unique, complex and profound spirit. The distillery would only produce limited editions, single malts focused on terroir, transparency and traceability.

Every bottle of Waterford whisky features its own TÉIREOIR code. Once entered on the website, it will reveal engaging content related to the release, including photography, video and audio about the grower, the distillation process as well as view the full spectrum of wood.
